KASHERING the Kitchen | How to Kasher a Kitchen | Orthodox Jewish Mom (Passover Prep 2021)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2021
- In this video I am showing you all the whole process of kashering our kitchen for Passover. From cleaning and prepping to kashering dishes and countertops, even what I do to drawers and countertops, this video has it all! SO if you have ever wondered what it takes to make a kitchen kosher for passover or year round, this video is for you! This is all done from our Sephardi traditions, if you are looking for Ashkenazi traditions of kashering a kitchen, most of this is the same, but there are a few differences. Contacting your local orthodox rabbi is
always recommended in matters of halakha.
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

I feel like this video doesn’t convey how exhausting this whole process can be 😂 The job is done now though and that’s so satisfying. Excited for family to arrive later today!
Heads up: I won’t be posting a video Monday because of the Passover Holiday, but plan to post Thursday during Chol Hamoed!
Have a great weekend everyone! Happy Passover / Chag Sameach to those who are celebrating!
@@user-bw3fl7fj9w Oh good lolol
@@user-bw3fl7fj9w Thank you!
Chat Sameach!
@@mcomeslast thank you! Chag sameach to you as well!
I was thinking all the time, I would never be able to do all that Chana is doing, and with 3 kids! You are truly amazing! 🇮🇱🔯🇮🇱
I don't know if everyone who follows you is Jewish, but I am a Christian. I love your channel, love your personality, so vibrant. I am so interested in learning more about your culture, traditions. Your Amazing!
Thank you so much for being here! It’s definitely a great mix of many religions including Jews of all walks and Christians. Happy to have you here! 💜
i was raised catholic, converted to protestant as an adult, but now in my mid 40s am feeling a very strong pull towards Judaism!
@@nicolepelletier9081 sounds similar to my journey!!! Best of luck as you continue to explore and find your spiritual home ❤️
@@nicolepelletier9081 I just saw your blog for the first time I'd be curious about your journey to Orthodox Judaism Also, did your family embrace your choice
I'm syrian muslim .. I don't know why I'm following this but it's really interesting .
You know, even if people do not practice passover, this is definitely a good how-to clean a kitchen well. This has giving me inspiration to clean my kitchen! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful life.
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind and encouraging comment :) Happy cleaning! I’m so glad you feel inspired!
Exactly! I have many friends who like to do what they call the Spring deep clean. Why not? I think it is quite mandatory in every house, at the very least once a year.
Looking at this video I kept thinkink how Judaism could not be practiced without women's valuable contribution. Whoever says 'just a housewife' doesn't know nor appreciate all the hard work.
Thank you for you videos and inspiration. You are such an amazing person!
Love from non-Jew from Sarajevo-Bosnia
My sister is in the process of converting. I’m using your channel to learn and understand her walk. Thank you for helping me. I appreciate your openness and willingness to share. ❤️ I was raised Christian so you are helping me understand things my sister has tried to explain to me. I’m more of a visual learner so the videos and your kind open personality really help me. I just want my sister to know I love her and I am taking an interest in her faith walk. Thank you for helping me do that.❤️
I’m so glad this is helpful! Please tell your sister good luck for me! I hope it’s a wonderful journey for you both 💜 You sound like an amazing sister!
@@jaroffireflies I absolutely will tell my sister you wish her good luck. I am sure she will appreciate that. Thank you for the sweet compliment.

The biggest tragedy is to deny Jesus Christ. The tragedy of not understanding Him, God, the God head, God, the Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I’m afraid you nor your sister understand where you come from, what Christianity means and where you are going. The Jews at this point are very incomplete people.
@@biancahotca3244 I do not deny Jesus Christ. You are judging someone you do not know. I believe I can learn about another’s religion respectfully. I believe in loving my sister because she is my sister. I can learn and not convert myself. I can respect others beliefs even if I don’t share them. I can absolutely love people who are different than myself. I think it’s possible to hear people, value them and still maintain my own beliefs. Have a great day.
What a tremendous amount of work, but you and your family must feel a huge amount of satisfaction when the job is complete.
This brings back happy memories. I worked for a kosher bakery for 13 years, cleaning for Passover was exhausting but I enjoyed the tradition and symbolism. Thank you for your videos.
So wonderful! Thank you for sharing and thank you for watching’
Your videos are fascinating. I'm a black Baptist and just love them. I learn so much.
Thank you so much! I love learning about other cultures too :)
Kashering a kitchen is a lot of work but it is so worth it. One of my favourite parts of being Jewish is that our days, years and lives are structured in such a way that we are reminded to be thankful and reflect AND CLEAN. Haha! Another great video, Chana. Chag Sameach!
Love that!!! Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words :) Chag Sameach!

I found this video very interesting. I grew up in a Southern Baptist home. Before Easter and Christmas my mother always cleaned everything in the kitchen with boiling water. The counters, dishes, pots, silverware and refrigerator. It was a tradition passed down from many generations. I never thought to ask why and now my mother and grandmother have passed on. I do not use boiling water but do a very thorough cleaning before the holidays. Thank you for sharing.
Wow that is so interesting!
How interesting! I am also a Christian, and, at 73, have never heard of cleaning with boiling water before Christmas or Easter. Cleaning so thoroughly, regardless of the method, before a sacred holiday is a point of agreement and understanding each other, isn't it?
Your videos are so interesting. A person could read about the process, but actually seeing you doing it, is so helpful. Thank you!!
I adore how much effort you put and care about the details. Watching your videos gives me a spark to get my life back on track. Thank you.
so nice to see the whole family gets involved, the children will remember when they get old such a beautiful memories!
Wow! The dedication and teamwork from you and your family is inspiring! Thank you for sharing and teaching!🙏🏽
Our pleasure! Thank you so much for watching!
I'm so happy I found your channel! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for watching! And welcome! I’m so glad you’re here 😊
This is very interesting. It’s a lot of effort but I can tell it’s worth it with the joy you show in the videos.
Thank you!
You are amazing and thank you for explaining the preparation for Passover.💖
Thank you for your kind words 💜
Goodness, what a lot of work. You do everything so effortlessly. Happy Passover and Good Shabbos. Have a great holiday with your family.
Thank you for your kind words!!! 😊😊😊💜💜💜
I love learning about other religions and cultures. I am amazed at all you do to get ready for one holiday. This was awesome.
Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed this :)
I am taking a break from my Pesach cleaning and found this video from last year. It was amazing!!! I am particularly blown away by your kashering method in your backyard. It’s really brilliant. As far as using the wet vac, I think this is sheer genius. Kashering the countertops makes the mother of all messes and I also liked how you incorporated the electric tea kettle. I have been making Pesach for over 30 years and it’s refreshing to be able to learn new tricks. Thank you 😍
Wow! I had no idea kashering was so involved. I appreciate that you shared this with your viewers. I always learn so much watching your videos. Happy Passover!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos!!!
It is so wonderful that you are willing to share so much about being kosher. I learned so much from you. You are very sweet.
Thank you so very much!
Thanks for a glimpse of koshering your kitchen
You are so welcome!
Amazing! I don't love cleaning but I do love the feeling of everything being clean and ready for chag😊
חג פסח כשר ושמח!!
It’s a great feeling to be ready indeed :) Thanks for watching! Chag Sameach!
I like seeing your oldest son being involved. It is excellent for children to learn to be part of a family unit.
You and your husband are a beautiful couple and a great inspiration to others. Bless you all.
Thank you 😊
I love how your life is. You have simple rules to flow. And a very loving family
Thank you :)
Not too simple
Wow! So interesting. Thanks for sharing about your culture 💖
oh, I am enjoying this video so much! I'm not Jewish, but love the Jewish ways of doing things, the koshering, etc. I am going to use your way of cleaning in my kitchen as well! Thank you so much for sharing so many parts of your life! Love, Jeanei xxoo
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! I really appreciate you!
Chag sameach! So interesting to see how other people do their Pesach prep. We are not so thorough but the kitchen (and other parts of the house) still gets a deeper clean than any other time.
Chag Sameach! Hope y’all are enjoying the holiday so far! 💜
What an Enormous amount of work! I can only imagine how exhausted you are! Although during Passover and after you'll be able to relax completely knowing all the work is done😊
Exactly! I’m looking forward to a week of family, friends, good food, and books!
Thank you for posting such an interesting and informative video. You’re amazing ❤️❤️
Thank you so much! :)
happy Passover. I am enjoying learning about your culture and customs.
Thank you! I’m so glad you are enjoying!
I am finding your channel so interesting and I am learning so much
I’m so glad! Thank you!
You are a rockstar mom!
Thank you!!! 😊😊😊
Love your video, excellent job. That kitchen is spotless!
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow, I’m amazed at all the work involved to get ready for Passover. I had no idea and I’m really enjoying the education I’m getting on your channel!
Thank you so much Edith! I’m so glad this is helping you learn more :) Passover prep is definitely a lot of work but totally worth it :)
This was a great learning experience! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Shalom, thank you for sharing with us!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Amazing process!!!
Thank you!
I’m sure I’ve told you this already, but I have to mention it again. Your home is just lovely and looks so welcoming.
Oh thank you! That’s so kind of you ❤️
The wet vac idea is genius. I have a carpet cleaner that has that attachment. And yes, I have a kettle. Helps so much! Thank you!
Perfect!!! ❤️
Super satisfying video. Great way to restart
So glad you enjoyed!
Chana, I am a new subscriber (from Israel) and I am enjoying your vlogs very much. In my family we have a separate set of dishes, pots, pans and silverware for passover. It saves a lot of time preparing the kitchen for passover. I pack up the kitchen and close up the kitchen cupboards, wash down the counters and get rid of all chamets. After passover, before we use bring in chamets, I pack up the passover dishes and once they are stored until the next year, I just re-open my cupboards and we're all set. Hope you have a Shanna Tova (just around the corner).
Hello and welcome!
I always learn something new when watching your videos! It’s all so interesting!
I'm so glad! Thank you so much for telling me :)
so good at explaining
Love this!!!❤️❤️
Such hard work - I wish I had someone to help do this!! Lovely presentation, Thank you!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed!
This is really showing me just how lazy my butt is. What a beautiful job you have done! God will bless you so much for obeying his word on Passover!
You are a gem💎. I love how I can hear you smilinb when you narrate. ❤❤❤
Aw thank you Cathy 😊
I am loving all your videos. I am a Christian. I live in NC now but am from LI, NY...not far from Bklyn. I grew up knowing a lot about being kosher...very interesting. I love the rituals and traditions. Boy..it is a lot of work, isn't it? You rock!
Thank you so much!!! 😊💜
Good morning lovely! What a great morning, a cup of coffee watching your video!
Aw thank you so much! I’ll “join” you with my cup of tea ☕️😊
@@jaroffireflies love that! Have a fabulous day!
@@kendycer.4072 you too 💜
Fascinating! I had no idea that it was such hard work!
It is but it’s worth it! Glad you enjoyed :)
Just discovered your channel ! I subscribed and you’ve inspired me to deep clean my kitchen.
Thank you so much for subscribing! Welcome! And happy cleaning!
Gosh such a lot of work but now your kitchen is gleaming! Please have a rest if you get the chance. I really enjoy your videos. You're always so cheerful.
This was very interesting! I love my electric kettle. Thanks for sharing!
So glad you enjoyed Debbie!
Hi, what a discover for me ! I've never seen kashering and I don't really know what does it mean really but it's so interesting to discover other cultures. Thank you so much for sharing.
From Paris area. France.
So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for being here
Absolutely fascinating!!
So glad you enjoyed!
Thank you so so much for showing us so clearly how to Kosher the Kitchen for Pesach.
It was clear and simple to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
This was amazing.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed 😁
I just love your channel. Your energy is astounding.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
I too have four children. 3 boys and 1 girl, just like you. I was also born into a catholic family and have agreed more with the Jewish religion in the same way as you questioned Catholicism, except my experience with my children being welcomed into the church was the catalyst for most of my doubts.
I wish I had your bravery in finding your place in this world.
Hold onto your faith. You are an inspiration, and I do regret not taking action when I was young.
Side note: I’m 66 years old, and an afterthought, you look fantastic for just giving birth!
@@MsAlmost500 thank you ❤️
I really enjoy your channel & learning about the Jewish faith
So glad you are enjoying! Thank you for your lovely comment!
I've just come across your blog and am really enjoying learning about your religion. I had no idea what it takes to be Kosher. Also, you take care of a type one diabetic child. I retired 2 years ago after 53 years as a RN. The changes in the treatment of diabetes is mind-blowing. Your son has a much better chance living a normal life span now. Celiac disease is another issue all together. You are REMARKABLE. It is now Dec 2021 so I am wishing you and your family a blessed Hanukkah season.

Thank you Carole for your kind words :) And welcome! I’m so glad you’re here!
Love everything about this video but the Topo Chico box warmed my heart so much. My husband is from Texas and he introduced me to it, now me and our kids are obsessed with the water. I have to tell the kiddos that we can't just drink it all day everyday but boy I wish we could! 😂
Fascinating.
So glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching!
I use separate Passover pots and kitchen items for Passover. I still have to clean the cabinets and appliances but having separate Passover dishes is a treat
Love that! Have a wonderful Passover!!!
I’m amazed of how much time and effort is put into kashering a kitchen! I’m exhausted just watch you do it!!
It is a lot, but it’s very important to us 😊
I am not Jewish but I clean my house and kitchen like this once per month. I am a mom of 6.
Love your videos!
Thank you!
I'd love to see kosher cooking and what we eat in a day type videos! 😍
Thank you so much for letting me know! I try to include a lot of our cooking. Here is a playlist I created of my videos that include cooking to get you started 😊 ruclips.net/p/PLqxZU_RTv3pvi2bToQjOCGzXQ5vMjtVQ5
I've been binge watching your videos. 😁
Thank you! 💜
Wow, what a lot of work!
Yes, but totally worth it :)
Wow that was very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome ☺️
😮 wow - super impressive
I am christian an house wife with children. The jewish woman are a great inspiration for me. Thank you.
Thank you!
You are glowing today!
You’re so kind 😊 thank you!
Feel like I have learned so much.
That is so much work. WOW
Totally worth it though!
That was very motivating
Love this, I actually clean this way!
Wow! That’s intense!
What a lot of work!! How dedicated you are to your faith...I found it most interesting.
So glad you enjoyed:)
I finally got an Electric kettle, it has made such a difference. I wonder where have you been my whole life. I love that thing.
The electric kettle is amazing!!! We love ours for Pesach prep :)
קיבלתי מרץ מהסירטון שלך💌
צריכים כבר להתחיל במטבח...
עוד מעט פסח. תודה💛
דרישת שלום מישראל.
תודה שצפית! מקווה שהיה לך פורים נהדר!
Thank you so much for this video. I remember how my grandmother and my mother were turning down the entire house to clean every little corner, everywhere, even where hametz never went to! They always started like two or three weeks before Pessah. It is a lot of work. I did the same as my mother in my
House and I needed three days to recuperate! Looool. I see you have worked so much. Kol a kavod! Bravo! We have a lot of rules but it is very rewarding. Thank you, Hashem.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing ❤️ Chag sameach!
THANK YOU for sharing
You are so welcome!
I love a clean kitchen but what you do to get ready for Passover is a huge undertaking! Wow it’s amazing!
Luckily it's only once a year, both for the fact that we only have to do it once and that we actually do it once lol
This brings back so many memories. We had two kitchens in our house growing up, it was a process. So many things to be stored and donated. We always started about a month out eating out our pantry/freezers so nothing would be left the week before passover. Even our emergency supplies got rotated.
Our deep clean for Rosh Hashanah was also a serious under taking. My Grandmother would even pull us from school to get it done if we were hosting that year. Not a single thing in the house wasn't cleaned it felt like. I always got the walls and ceiling since I didn't mind climbing the ladder.
Oh wow! Twice a year? That’s intense!
@@jaroffireflies yup, everything. Closets, the basement and attic were so much fun lol. New Year and all
Very interesting!
About twice a year my mother and my grandmother would clean the dining room and dishes and line the dish cabinets with clean paper. For holidays we had separate dishes and silverware. I it very interesting that this was similar to some Jewish tradition. My mother was not a religious person at all. My grandmother was Catholic and her family came to USA around 1910 just before she was born.
Thanks for sharing your story!
I grew up Irish Catholic and now I'm Fundamental Baptist. I found this FASCINATING!!!
So glad you enjoyed :)
Your videos are so interesting! PS I love your head covering ( I absolutely love purple 💜)
Thank you Gail!
Pesach kasher vesameach!! Hope you enjoy your 3day yomtov! Love your purple tichel btw
Thank you! And thank you!!!
Love your chanel, it is great to see how you show that our jewish laws are all not jus because so, but have allot of purposes! Your rapping off the foil so to speek. And one thing, that I had thought just this year, I had putet all of the fridge and refrigerator shelfs and baskets to a warm soapu bath tub! - great results evriting comes off super easy, almost any skrubbing involved!)))
As someone who went through American public school that doesn't teach religion well at all, this is fascinating to me to learn the reasons behind your holidays and how you prepare for them! I love your channel just from that learning aspect!
Thank you so much for your kind words Hannah!
Baking soda is a marvellous cleaner, and makes the refrigerator smell so fresh
Thanks for the tip!
oh my God soooo much work and so many rules
Wow. Wasn't sure what Kashering was. I am impressed.
Thanks :)
this got reccomended to my feed randomly, and I loved the vid! Just wanted to say you have really pretty eyes!
Thank you so much! 😊
Wow you are the hardest working woman I know!!!
Thank you 😊
Wow thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
It is so interesting as a Christian raised person, the amount of things that we do that are so similar to your practices we just call them something else or practice for a different reason. After all Christians come from Jews. Really love your content and happy spirit!!! May God bless you and your family always ❤️
Thank you!
